Question

The davis family traveled 35 miles in 1/2 hour if it is currently 2:00pm any the family destination is 245 miles away at what time will they arrive explain

Answer 1

The distance traveled by Davis family = 35 miles

Time taken to cover the distance = $\frac{1}{2}$ hour

Speed = Distance $\div$ Time

Speed = $35 \div \frac{1}{2}$

Speed = $35 \times 2$

So, speed = 70 miles/hour.

At 2:00 pm, the family destination was 245 miles away.

So, the number of hours, when the family was 245 miles away = $245 \div 70$

=  3.5 hours

So, after 3.5 hours,  that is at 5:30 pm, the Davis family will be 245 miles away.
